texte = Comparisons in WebDNA are by default non-case-sensitive, and there is no case option for the [showif] (or [hideif] or [if]) context - though this would be a nice feature in some situations.One way to do case-sensitive comparisons is to encrypt the values without a seed, like this:[showif [url][encrypt][a][/encrypt][/url]=[url][encrypt][b][/encrypt][/url]]This will only evaluate true if [a] and [b] are identical, including case.- brianAt 6:23 PM 8/21/02, Kalin Mintchev wrote: >hi, > >why case=T doesn't work with [showif]? > >i'm using conversion dbs and stuff but why case=T can not be an option for >the [showif] tags???? > >thanks...-- <= Brian C.
